Add citation with no mouse

jgordonwalker

I've just upgraded to Zotero 3 and finding the new citation addition method a great improvement. With a keyboard macro I can easily bring up the citation window, type in the search and select an item without lifting my hands to use the mouse.

Unfortunately, to enter the page number I need to click on it. Is there any shortcut or macro I can use to entirely create a new citation without leaving the keyboard?

for page numbers specifically, just type p. 123 after the citation.
More generally, to access other locators as well as prefix and suffix, use ctrl+down (cmd+down on a mac).

Or even just "123".

That's exactly what I wanted. Thanks for your help. It makes this new interface even more useful
